When a user selects an outside line, the display prompts the user to enter an
account code. As the code is dialed, it appears on the screen next to the
"Acct:" prompt.
Telephones with Forced Account Code Entry assigned can forward calls only to
extensions and not to outside telephone numbers. The user hears a fast busy
signal when trying to forward calls to an outside telephone number.
When Forced Account Entry is assigned to a telephone and the user tries to dial
an outside call on a Personal Line or Pool button without entering the account
code, the telephone loses its dial tone.
Forced Account Code Entry can be assigned to a QCC. However, Account
Code Entry can be used to enter codes for outside calls only by selecting the
feature from the display and not through the use of feature codes.
Forced Account Code Entry cannot be assigned to Remote Access users.
Multiline telephone users who use a programmed Acoount Code button or
display telephone users who select the feature from the display can use Personal
Speed Dial and System Speed Dial to dial account codes. Single-line telephone
users and multiline telephone users who complete the entry by dialing a # cannot
use Personal Speed Dial or System Speed Dial to dial account codes since the
# required to use Speed Dial is also used to complete Account Code Entry.
The account code is printed in the "Account" field of the SMDR record.
When a call is transferred, the destination extension cannot enter an account
code to overwrite the account code entered at the originating telephone.
Assign Forced Account Code Entry to individual extensions.

An RS-232-compatible, 80-column serial printer or other device is needed to
